Added stress!

When I was in the hospital after my surgery, I had some nausea and vomiting.  Not fun but fine, it's pain or drug related and I'll deal with it.  They treated it in the hospital and I continued to have nausea periodically. Upon discharge the following day, I was given a prescription for nausea medication.  I've had bouts of nausea periodically during my recovery.  I've dealt with it by taking the medicine or eating chicken noodle soup.  Today, I started wondering if it could be related to my surgery.  I did a google search and .... sure enough, it can be a complication from the stimulator being implanted in my spinal cord.  Perfect!  I'll be monitoring it to see if I can find a pattern and keeping my fingers crossed that it's simply a coincidence.
